Dedicated Maddie Chambers has completed her own tribute to J.R.R. Tolkiens Lord of the Rings trilogy by creating a miniature model of hobbit Frodo Baggins home.Maddie, 30, spent a year building her intricate model by hand, making everything from the portraits on the walls to the household furniture and vegetable patch in the garden....
But even the hobbits whose average height is just three feet six inches tall would dwarf Maddies creation, which measures just three feet square ....
Mum-of-two Maddie has ensured even the smallest detail is faithful to the way author Tolkien and filmmaker Jackson have depicted the hobbits Middle Earth home.
There is a tiny one-inch version of the Baggins family tree framed on one of the walls, an even smaller, fully accurate map of Middle Earth and even notes in Frodo's 'Elvish' handwriting littering the hobbits lounge.
The kitchen is stocked with miniaturised food and utensils and a barrel bearing a longbottom leaf label the ale drunk by the hobbits in the record-breaking films.
Every scrap of furniture been created from scratch and duvets, rugs and towels mean any tiny hobbits could live in comfort.
There is also a shelf of microscopic books on offer and beautiful dresser drawers and wardrobes to help fashion-conscious elves look the part.
Hard. Core. If you think I'm going to make fun of this woman, I'm actually not. Her model looks awesome; I'm nothing but impressed, and it's not like most of us haven't wasted immense amounts of time doing something at least nerdy and far less impressive. Hell, I spent 30 minutes the other day riding a virtual horse around in a circle in the Darksiders videogame to unlock a 10-point Achievement. Advantage: Maddie Chambers. (Via Sci-Fi Wire)
